<p>So that it won't get deleted, I'll say something about high school:</p>
<p>Our counselors know nothing and give seniors ridiculous schedules that ruin all of their plans. In addition, my friend will no longer be the valedictorian because of scheduling madness.</p>
<p>My counselor was awesome, she was pretty much the only reason I got in because I was such a mess with apps that without her I would never have been organized enough to get my act together and mail everything so thanks for that :D</p>
<p>Leah's kind of a boring name because it has no nicknames, which is why my parents chose it. Kind of sad.</p>
<p>Now this obnoxious kid is going to be the val (the kind of kid who IMs you every day after school to compare the latest test scores/essay grades/etc.) and no one will want to listen to him speak at graduation.</p>
